PRODUCT INFORMATION Category: Flux Cored Stainless Electrodes Alloy: WW317LT-1 Class: E317LT-X Description: Recommended for welding type 317 stainless with a maximum of .04% carbon in the weld deposit. The higher molybdenum content, as compared to the type 316L, further reduces susceptibility to pitting corrosion. Used in the pulp and paper industry and in other severe corrosion applications involving sulfuric and sulfurous acids and their salts. Following the chemical composition designation comes the letter “T” which signifies that the product is a flux cored electrode or rod. Following the “T” is a “1” or “0” indicating the recommended position of welding. The “0” designed to weld in the flat or horizontal position, “1” designed to weld in all position. Following the position indicator and a dash, are the numerals “1”, “3”, “4”, “5”, or the letter “G”. The numerals “1”, “4”, and “5” identify the shielding gas required for classification of the electrode. The number “3” signifies that an external shielding gas is not employed. The letter “G” signifies that the shielding medium, chemical composition and mechanical properties are not specified.
